Psalms 148
1 Praise Yahweh! Praise him, from up in heaven; praise him from way up in the sky!
Αινείτε τον Κύριον. Αινείτε τον Κύριον εκ των ουρανών· αινείτε αυτόν εν τοις υψίστοις.
2 All you angels who belong to him, praise him! All you who are in the armies of heaven, praise him!
Αινείτε αυτόν, πάντες οι άγγελοι αυτού· αινείτε αυτόν, πάσαι αι δυνάμεις αυτού.
3 Sun and moon, [you also] praise him! You shining stars, you praise him!
Αινείτε αυτόν, ήλιε και σελήνη· αινείτε αυτόν, πάντα τα άστρα του φωτός.
4 You highest heavens, praise him! And you waters that are high above the sky, praise him!
Αινείτε αυτόν, οι ουρανοί των ουρανών, και τα ύδατα τα υπεράνω των ουρανών.
5 I want [all of] these to praise Yahweh [MTY] because by commanding [them to exist], he created them.
Ας αινώσι το όνομα του Κυρίου· διότι αυτός προσέταξε, και εκτίσθησαν·
6 He determined the places where they should be [in the sky], and he commanded that they should be there forever. They cannot disobey that command!
και εστερέωσεν αυτά εις τον αιώνα και εις τον αιώνα· έθεσε διάταγμα, το οποίον δεν θέλει παρέλθει.
7 And everything on the earth, praise Yahweh! You [huge] sea monsters and [everything else that is] deep [in the ocean],
Αινείτε τον Κύριον εκ της γης, δράκοντες και πάσαι άβυσσοι·
8 and fire and hail, and snow and frost, and strong winds that obey what he commands, [I tell] all of you to praise Yahweh!
πυρ και χάλαζα, χιών και ατμίς, ανεμοστρόβιλος, ο εκτελών τον λόγον αυτού·
9 Hills and mountains, fruit trees and cedar [trees],
τα όρη και πάντα τα βουνά· δένδρα καρποφόρα και πάσαι κέδροι·
10 all the wild animals and all [you] cattle, and the (reptiles/creatures that scurry across the ground), and [all] the birds, [I tell all of them to praise Yahweh]!
τα θηρία και πάντα τα κτήνη· ερπετά και πετεινά πτερωτά.
11 You kings on this earth and all the people [that you rule], you princes and all [other] rulers,
Βασιλείς της γης και πάντες λαοί· άρχοντες και πάντες κριταί της γής·
12 you young men and young women, you old people and children, [everyone, praise Yahweh!]
νέοι τε και παρθένοι, γέροντες μετά νεωτέρων
13 I want them [all] to praise Yahweh [MTY] because he is greater than anyone else. His glory is greater than [anything on] the earth or [in] heaven.
ας αινώσι το όνομα του Κυρίου· διότι το όνομα αυτού μόνου είναι υψωμένον·
14 He caused us, his people, to be strong in order that we, his people, we Israeli people (who are very precious to him/whom he loves very much), would praise him. So praise Yahweh!
Η δόξα αυτού είναι επί την γην και τον ουρανόν· και αυτός ύψωσε κέρας εις τον λαόν αυτού, ύμνον εις πάντας τους οσίους αυτού, εις τους υιούς Ισραήλ, λαόν όστις είναι πλησίον αυτού. Αλληλούϊα.
